Smiths Smokery Market stall at West Bridgford Farmers Market this weekend Smiths a family-run business first started catching eels on the East Coast of England over thirty years ago. For many years their eels were sold live to Billingsgate Market in London or sent by lorry to Holland. About ten years ago we began smoking eels and selling them locally on farmers markets. and are thought to be the are the only company in the UK catching and smoking eels from a sustainable resource.

The other fish they smoke are fresh from their weekly visit to Grimsby fish market . Seeing the stall reminded me I have had a packet of kippers have been languishing at the bottom of the freezer . Kippers as smoked herring are sustainable and taste delicious. Just one tiny problem actually hundred of tiny bones.

I decided to make a kedgeree, I have made it before with smoked mackerel , it’s a really nice breakfast or evening meal.
